hi guys i got a 93 bayou 300 ,i cleaned the carb and i still cant get no gas to the plug,the bowl is full,any advice
thanks

 

make sure the intake (big rubber tube between carb and motor)is on good and tight and make sure carb is in that intake good.If there is any air leaks between motor and carb, there may not be enough vacuum to pull fuel from the carb. Are you sure the motor isn't getting fuel?

 

the bike was running good sunday so everything must be ok as far as the rubber.i pull the plug after trying to start it with full choke and it has very little gas

 

Have you changed the plug?Is the plug getting fire?

 

ive tryed 4 new plugs,all are firing,none are wet after repeat choking

 

pour a few drops of gas down the spark plug hole,put plug back in and try to start it.see what that does.

 

ok,ill try it tommorow,ive bought a carb kit from ebay but it seems to slow in coming.thanks for the replys though

 

it would start when pouring it down the plug hole,so why dont it seem to get enough gas the right way

 

You're sure the pilot jet is not plugged? Even if it is, the enrichment circuit should still work (ie choke).... but it will only work when the throttle is closed. The enrichment ciruit is NOT a choke and will only work when the throttle is dead closed. Try backing the idle speed screw off a bit to get the enrichment to work.

Are you sure the air filter is still attached inside the airbox? That would be a vacuum leak of sorts. Are you sure the intake valve is seating all the way down? Hard as h3ll to get an engine to start cold if the valve doesnt seat and seal up. Check you valve lash, or at least verify you do have lash before doing ANY carb work. I wasted hrs and hrs not following that rule once while trying to tune a quad up.

If none of that stuff works, you can resort to placing a towel over the air filter to restrict some more air. I guarantee that will soak your plug with gas by virtue of brute force.

 

ok ill try it tommorow,its about 30 below herenow(kinda nippy).i had new rings and piston installed saturday.the bike ran ok sunday though.
